Abstract: The study investigates the correlation between serum electrolyte levels and senile cataract development in diabetic and non-diabetic individuals in Central India. It includes an observational analysis of 100 cataract patients over 40 years, examining serum electrolytes and glycemic control. The results indicate a moderate correlation between serum sodium levels and senile cataracts in diabetics, with sodium and potassium potentially serving as markers. This study underscores the importance of electrolyte management in cataract prevention, particularly in diabetic populations.
